I guess most of the members on here have gone through many fashion trends over the years, so what were you and which ones did you enjoy most? any pics $:-\$

I did enjoy the skinhead era, the music and the clothes

Tinx - it's good to see that you've at least kept the hairstlye going if not the clothes

1960's Italian suits.
Short jacket with narrow lapels and three cloth covered buttons in the same material as the jacket.
Worn with a white shirt and a solid colour tie and a matching handkerchief in the jacket breast pocket(usually 3 points of material attached to a bit of cardboard).
Narrow trousers with 16" bottoms set off by 'winklepicker' shoes.
All complimented by a Perry Como haircut.
I miss the haircut most of all.

New Romantic- second hand clothes, tartan trousers, flouncy blouses, loads of make up, serious attitude - and of course my men had to wear more make up than I did!

That was me too! And now I'm off to see Spandau Ballet next week and doing it all again. Patrick is rebelling at wearing make up but I'm working on him....
